Derek Hough and Hayley Erbert keep close together on the red carpet at the 2018 Steve Irwin Gala Dinner held at SLS Hotel on Saturday (May 5) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The dancing couple were joined by Bindi Irwin, her boyfriend Chandler Powell, and Modern Family‘s Nolan Gould, among others at the event, which aims to continue the late Steve Irwin‘s legacy and benefit conservation efforts.

“She is always looking beautiful,” Derek shared with ET while speaking of Hayley, who was by his side.

He adds that her dress was particularly “stunning. I mean she looks, she’s gorgeous. She’s a beautiful woman.”

Hayley returned his compliments, pointing out that Derek does indeed have the dreamiest eyes.
